This book chapter provides an overview of the genomics and postgenomic technologies that are likely to have the greatest impacts on agronomy over the next 10-20 years and describes a number of case studies of their application.

This article discusses the use of DNA typing, likelihood ratios, and prior odds for missing persons identifications.

Article describing an approach to expand biocuration through crowdsourcing with undergraduates in the community-oriented wiki framework for GO annotation called the Gene Ontology Normal Usage Tracking System (GONUTS). This multiplies the number of high-quality annotations in international databases, enriches the coverage of the literature on normal gene function, and pushes the field in new directions.

This report discusses research on demand controlled ventilation using CO₂ sensors in a wireless sensor network. The focus of this research project was to investigate Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) monitoring technologies, government regulations and policies, and best practices to improve IAQ. This research is part of Research Experiences for Teachers (RET) in Sensor Education, a National Science Foundation (NSF) funded grant project.

This article is a review presenting examples of gene editing responsible for conferring both biotic and abiotic stresses in tomato simultaneously. The literature on using this powerful technology to improve fruit quality, yield, and nutritional aspects in tomato is highlighted.

Article on the generalization of entropy based divergence measures for symbolic sequence analysis.

Article on the functional analysis of metabolic channeling and regulation in lignin biosynthesis.

Article on a preliminary assessment of microbiome changes following blood-feeding and survivorship in the Amblyomma americanum nymph-to-adult transition using semiconductor sequencing.

This study demonstrates the vulnerability of species to extreme hydrological events, an increasing threat due to climate change.

This article evaluates otolith microchemistry as a method for assessing oil exposure history.

This article investigates physiological responses of larval fish to interactions between anthropogenic crude oile xposure andn atural factors.

This article is the first to present data on the migratory movements of the “large-billed” subspecies, F. a. naumanni, that breeds in the high Arctic and which has significantly larger body size than those farther south.

This article describes the exposure of quail embryos in the intact egg to hypoxia during "early" or "late" incubation for their entire 16-18 day incubation to determine critical windows for viability and growth.

Article discussing how G6f-like is an ITAM-containing collagen receptor in thrombocytes.

Article discussing the bacterial composition of subgingival plaque among diabetic and non-diabetic subjects to determine the effect that diabetes mellitus has on dental health.

Article describing pennycress genome annotation improvements using a combination of long- and short-read transcriptome data obtained from RNA derived from embryos of 22 accessions, in addition to public genome and gene expression information.

Data management plan for the grant, "Fatty Acid Amide Hydrolases and Chemical Communication in Plants." Research seeking to understand how an evolutionarily-conserved group of plant enzymes utilizes chemical signals to regulate growth and to influence their microbial environment. Specific research aims include the discovery of new enzymes and their substrate molecules that act as communication signals. Broader applications of this research may offer new strategies to enhance agricultural outputs by manipulating plant-microbe interactions in crop and soil systems.

Article on an integrative analysis of transgenic alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) suggesting new metabolic control mechanisms for monolignol biosynthesis.

Article describes how monitoring immunological response to physical stressors in a field setting is challenging because existing methods require a laboratory visit and traditional blood collection via venipuncture. The purpose of this study was to determine if our optimized dry blood spot (DBS) methodology yields sufficient total RNA to quantify the effect of Baker's Yeast Beta Glucan supplementation on post-exercise mRNA expression.

Article on biosynthesis and genetic engineering of proanthocyanidins and (iso)flavonoids.

Article on elemental concentrations in the seed of mutants and natural variants of Arabidopsis thaliana grown under varying soil conditions.

Article discusses the state of the science and existing shortcomings in terrestrial bioaccumulation assessment of neutral organic chemicals.

Article on the loss of rare fish species from tropical floodplain food webs and how this affects community structure and ecosystem multifunctionality in a mesocosm experiment.

Article on heart rate variability characteristics in sedentary postmenopausal women following six months of exercise training.
